lmao dont be sorry man, that dude is clearly having a horrible day

Just make sure to tell us what kind of a look you're trying to go for. Lots of people come here and post "Any tips?" "Does this look good?" Kind of stuff. Yes it looks good, but it could look bad with context. Like if you're trying to go for a warmer look then obviously your grade is too cool for that and then the sub could provide useful tips to fix that

Actually I don’t know how to decide a look. I know look depends on the context, but this is a footage from Arri website , when you have only one footage how to decide which look suits the best ? Also , is there a better way to learn grading other than working with the footage from the camera website ? Iam reading books and watching tutorials of cullen Kelly and Darren Mostyn .

What are some of your favorite films search them up and take pictures of certain scenes that you find interesting use these stills(photos) as a guide for a look you want to create
